have you ran away from a fight? (speak the truth)

[Ack-Ack]

Is that what all the cool kids are doing these days?

You didn't know it was the mark of a true Experten?  How else are we supposed to know who to fear if they don't have "Playing since Tour 96" in their signatures?  I know if I see a player with that in their signature, I know they are a Sierra Hotel pilot and will stay clear from them.

Well put.

 I often get taunted for running away in a typhie which I often fly.  I have a spit 16 1k behind me and we are at the same altitude and speed at the start.  I point my nose down and accellerate away from him while he taunts me on 200 for running and not staying to turn fight with him.  Sorry,  I was born at night but it wasn't last night.  

But you still tucked your tail and ran when you could have used other tactics  to counter the Spitfire's turn rate instead of running home.  Just because you can't out turn a plane in an angles fight doesn't mean you can't fight the plane, just have to know what your plane can and can't do vs. what the other plane can and can't do and plan your fight accordingly.

 I have done most everything in the previous 6 pages of this thread , LOL and tried most everything , its fun and a good game , but yep I've ran with my skirt up to land kills too . LOL most of us have

[angelsandair]

I'm not, you're still the one slinging insults.   

Not any more atleast

I don't fly a tnb ufo, so I'll run away to disperse the lemming gang train till I can deal with them 1 or 2 at a time.  If Stang is along for the ride, all the fancy pants survivalism goes out the window and we go straight into as much as 10 hordlings and kill em all or die a few short.

I always turn around for wingmen.

[RumbleB]

I only ever run if I miss the ho, my alt advantage gets less than 5k, my ammo is less than 75% and when I need to breastfeed myself.

[angelsandair]

ehh, I'm not gonna play till we get some newer maps in the MA
No offense to HTC, I just cant stand the maps we got in rotation now (Ozkansas and Titanic Tuesday maps.)

Lol I'd put "playing since tour 11" in my sig, but it would then lead to the obvious question "Why is this guy SUUUUCCcchhh a bad stick?"

I won't suicide in the horde for a wingman that failed to keep his E, and dived at the first red icon he saw.

Makes me think of the guys that scream for help while they are turn fighting like mad at the end of the nmy runway Best part is when that guy complains on country channel that he got now help =)

[valdals]

i withdrew in order for reinforcements to arrive. its suicide and down right stupid to go into a winless situation. ive been successful against noobs 7 vs 1 or experienced pilots 2 vs 1 but no way will i attack unknown pilots in rides superior than mine outnumbered.

I ran away from a fight just last night.  I was in a Stuka on my way to drop "the big bomb" on a strat site.  I got that feeling we all get from time to time.  Looked behind me and there was an F6F 800 behind me.   I dropped the bomb and did a diving turn for the ground. I juked and turned and headed back to my base.  He shot out both of my landing gear, a flap and I received a pilot wound.  BUT he followed me into the base flack.  I landed. He didn't.

Same here. My Dora turns like a cement mixer , so it's prudent to boogie and drag until you can separate an opponent from the herd. Hardly anyone can catch you, and when the last guy finally throws in the towel I reverse and usually have a great 1v1.
